The principal light of. the meeting was over collector and this developed into a warm contest. during which an entire ballot was thrown out. because other than legal voters dropped‘their tickets in the tel- lers’ hats. it ended in the re-electlon of Mr. Keene. The meeting was called to order at , 8 o'clock by Clark James Sheehan. who announced that there had been some misunderstanding as to the hour, it having been announced as 8:30 at one time. He called for the nomination Leonard was chosen. ‘ “i The call was read and A. E. Austin moved that a clerk be chosen. Jam’es Sheehan and Samuel 1.. Weed were nominated. but the latter declined and a ballot was called for. The chair then appointed Samuel D. Weed,.lanles Forbush and H. M. Kent tellers, and _ the minutes of the last meeting were ' l'flfld. While the tellers were distributing the ballots A. E. Austin stated that the original call said 8:30. and as there were several gentlemen outside who were waiting for that time, it might be «better to take a recess in order that the meeting should certainly be legal. He made that as a motion and it was passed. The crowd came in before 8:30, and the meeting was called at that time. Captain Joseph Crossman moved that a chairman be appointed and nom- inted Mr. Leonard, who was chosen.

The whole debt .of the dis- trict is $13,575, and the grand list is about 82.000000. so that two mills would raise $4.000 or 2%. 85.000.

The next business was the election of a collector and Thomas Hopper nominated James Kcena. A. 0 Wheeler brought forth the name of Frederick Ambler by request. He was a man who had “an established place of business, where it would be easy to find him. The ballot was being col~ looted. when Fred Bryant made a mo- tion that it be thrown out. as he had seen some boys voting illegally.

HWESIBNS South Norwalll Baptist Church to Lose lls Pastor. lulu inn urns The Church Members Were Not Pre- pared for the Letter Yesteday— To Take Effect September lath-aNot Accepted Yet. The resignation of Rev. William H. Hubbard. as pastor of the South Norv walk Baptist Church, reached the church officials last'night,‘ and noticed considerable consternation, in their m‘idl‘lt, being, it is said. entirely unex- pected; A number of prominent mem- bers were discussing the situation last night, at the conclusion of the prayer service, but declined to make any statement for publication. The pastor is attending the Young Men‘s Christ- tlan Association convention in Boston. and he could not be questioned in re- gard to the matter. He is expected to return to South Norwalk in a few days. The letter was as follows: SOUTH NORWA].K. June 13, 1901.

Horses which were never on the track before, brushed there yesterday. and some of the horses whichhave here. tofore been driven up and down the thoroughfare slowly were let out. and they were a surprise to‘ any. The majority of the real fast horses were not on the track, and it was a little disappointing to many who ex- pected to see them. The reason for the absence can be explained this way. Several of the horses which have appeared on the speedway and have shown such good trotting and pacing qualities. have been entered in the races at Danbury for Saturday, and it would have been utter folly to bring them out and run the risk of getting cut or hurt in some way. But the large number of people which were strong along the boulevard, were not wholly disappointed. for there was some good brushing and it was not all without xecitement. it was rather into before the brush- ing began and it was thought at one time that there would be very little trotting, but the ball was started rol- ling by James Golden with Fred Laud- er. of Hello Bill Company fame. as companion. driving his chestnut trotter Ciudn down the area at a lively clip. After the. first couple of turns. there was two lively brushes between the lit- tle mare. and Earle Wilkes, owned and driven by Theodore W. Austin. of Dar- icn. Honors were easy in this race. Then for a time Mr. Lauder handled the rains. and there was some good brushing between Cinda and Henry W. Mother’s pacer, which goes by the name of Clip. This horse did well yesterday, and had a lively brush with Bonnie 6., belonging to Arthur Wal- area. it can he said that the latter animal was the best on the speedway yester- day: notwithstanding the fact that L. M. Wright‘s great Thornton was there. Mr. Wright was on the speedway ear ly. but all the horse owners’seemed to be afraid of his horse. They kept shy of him, for the reason that he had challenged any horse in the state for the championship of the speedway. This naturally created considerable in- terest. and everyone was waiting to see who would be the first to turn with him at the monument for a brllsh. if was getting late and no one seemed to care to try the stretch with the animal that Mr. Wright has so much pride in. Finally Mr. Waldron put in an ap- pearance with his Bonnie G.. and ev- eryone was happy. All eyes were turned in the direction of Great Thorn ton and the gray pacer. Mr. Wright was eager to get in a brush with this animal. and the latter had hardly get on the track before he followed her and turned at the monument. A good start was made. The horses went down the arena at a fast rate. Bonnie G. a little in the load. The latter kept the lead and won the race. Directly after this Mr. Wright drove home and did not pllt in an appearance again on the track. This heat was the crest exciting thing on the track and everybody was worked up to a high pitch. it could be noticed ‘that if any- one would accept the challenge of Mr. Wright the interest in the race would be general. Mr. Waldron saw this too. rind after the race was over. consented to accept the challenge for next Thursday after- noon at 4 o'clock. It will be for the best two beats out of three. and there will be no long waits between. There will be starters and timekeepcrs. and that there will be an interesting time. goes without saying. Both men are confident they'can win. and it makes no difference which wins, there will be a disappointment by-vthc owner. The challenge would have been accepted for tomorrow, if it had not been for the races in Dnnbury. David Lee, of Bowuyton, was present with his pair of coils, a bay and black. told he had an interesting brush with laanc Boston's pair of bays. Other horses which were noticed were Thom. as Ward’s bay gelding. l. G. Hamilton’s bay colt. Friskie, with M. Lynch. of the Highland Brewing Company, ,of Springfield. as his guest; M. 'I'. Hatch. with his black trotter: C. E. Clapham’s Robin. and many others. OPENING DAV. JUNE lath, SATUR- DAY. abmsld-oa»ths.aound. Boats will leave Donna‘s Point every half hour afterlil s. to.

' Professor Sartalrl Entertain 3 His Brown's College Classes. in the assembly room of Brown‘s Collegcllhcre gathered last evening thirty-four bright young people, con- stituting part of the graduating class of 1901. Owing to their residing out of town the remaining number of the class were unable to be present. The object of the meeting was to have the members of both day and evening classes come together and make their plans for the class reception on the 27th instant in Music Hall. and be- come acquainted with the program as arranged for the commencement exer- cises. which will be held on the 26th instant. President Sartain of, the col- lege. called the class to order about 8 o'clock. In his characteristic manner he spoke of the pleasant recollections associated with the class history. and in concluding said that. he expected each member to strive to make a mark of excellence in their chosen profes- sions. that opportunities were plentl‘ ful. for honorable. energetic - young people. but that ability. while it is much bought for, must be backed by enelggy and morality in order to attain success. After all arnangemcnts for the reception and exercises were con eluded the class were asked to visit the Shorthand Department. where the tables were arranged in one lo‘hg row and laden with ice cream and cake. This was a surprise to the class, and us the atmosphere was close, was en- joyed immensely. The invitations will be Issued on Monday and a copy of the program will be publishedin the Sentinel.

Two Intosioltted'dlosldonu Milka Things leoly., , There was much excitement in Bed ton street last night. and for a time it looked as though some one would be murdered. in fact the story reached the center of the city of South Nbr- walk that a murder had been commit R p ted. and Officer Walter Hall, who was standing on the Ely avenue bridge. was notified. that two men were fight- ing in Benton street and that one of them would surely be murdered. The oiilcer hurried to the scene of the bloody ail'ray and found John Kerekcs, a notorious individual. wall- known to the police, and Andrew Her- man. who both reside in Benton street. in a hand to hand light. They welt using all kinds of weapons and both were covered with blood. The excite- ment was intense, and when the oilicer arrived there were fully 200 people on. the scene. No one lntersfered with th fighting men. It seems that Kerekes has been drinking heavily lately, and going, home last night shortly before 10 o'clock, insulted ,Mrs. Horihan. his neighbor. Mr. Herman, who has also been drinking quite hard. and was slightly intoxicated last night, resent- ed the insult. There was trouble im- mediately and both man got into the middle of the atreet.‘ The blood and dust flew for about fifteen minutes. when some one ran after the officer. Kerckes, who has been arrested many times for drunkennes and other offences, recognized the officer before the latter got up to him. He broke away from Herman and ran to the house. Officer Hall went in pursuit. Kerekes dashed in the front door and across the kitchen floor to the cellar door. The officer, was close behind him and just as the fugitive was about to descend the stairs. a firm grip was placed on his arm. There was another desperate struggle, but this time it was between an officer of the law and a fugitive from justice. After a des- perate fight, in which Officer Hall did not use his club once. he finally, man- aged to get the handcuffs on and march his prisoner to the lockup. ‘ He then returned to Boston street and got Herman, who was by that time willing to go with the oiiicer without any resistance. This morning in the South Norwalk side of the town court. Kerekes presented anything but a‘ nice appearance. His face was terribly pummeiled and one eye was closed. Herman was released on a bond last night by some friends. and did not put in an appearance. The case was con- tinued until 3 o'clock this afternoon. when Herman and some witnesses will be in court. it promises to be an in- teresting session, Kcrkes has been arrested several times and each time. his wife has been eager for his release. This time she wants him to go to jail. She says that he is no good to her and that she can get along better without him. It is thought that he will receive a jail sen- tence. Long after the fight, the people remained out in Benton street and talked over the affair. LOWERING WATER MAIN. u—u—l.‘ Chariot G. Lubrano Got the Contract For the City of Norwaik.
